 Welcome to the KEI website.

 

Our KEI goal is to bring Electro-technology to people.

Electronics is a very dynamic industry with new ideas and discoveries happening every day.
There are many career opportunities available worldwide from electrical service personnel to the
specialist engineers in Avionics, Biology, Mechatronics, Computer sciences, Building indusrty and Process plants.

With such a fast growing industry it is important people are well equipped with the knowledge
and know-how and have access to materials so that they can the gain the necessary hands-on experience in today’s industry.

To facilitate this demand KEI will provide various products and information services to help people quickly understand this technology and learn how they can use it into practical ways.
First hand experience with this technology is fun for many, it is rewarding, provides an exciting challenge and will boost self confidence and vision.

 

To explore electronics in a practical way KEI has produced a kit set product called PicPatch.
The PicPatch is a small microcontroller interface circuit board that it can be configured in various ways and programmed for different applications. This flexibility provides a useful tool for both electronic education or as a permanent control system for an industrial application.
Such applications may include a new toy invented by a student or a farmer who wants a specilised
automatic gate control system.

KEI provides the service for preassembled kits with power pack supply options for classroom education tools and for specific industry applications.

 

We also provide systems support, software development and OEM product design services.

Please see our Support page.

 

Various information sheets on PicPatch and other supporting documents are also available.

These documents including the project sheets and a power point application are also available for
purchase on compact disk.

Please see the Product / Application tree.



Product data sheets include:

  • PicPatch08 Assembly instructions,
  • Getting Started with PicPatch08,
  • PicPatch08 Data sheet,

Various project sheets are available with questions and answer to practical applications.
These project sheets start with a basic application and progress to more complex problems.
They are structured for Level 2 and Level 3 New Zealand Electro-Technology NZET unit standards.

Tutor information and answers to the questions are located at the end of each project sheet.

Specific unit standard numbers will be listed in due course.

 

KEI Ltd is working closely with members of the New Zealand Electro-Technology Industrial Training Organisation ETITO, local business contacts, high schools and local polytechnic.

 

ETITO established the New Zealand Brightsparks forum which has local district members employed throughout New Zealand to promote electro-technology into New Zealand Schools.
